Type neepery, 24 style.

An observant typographic enthusiast has noticed a few irregularities about the clock displayed on 24. (I love this guy.) First of all, the "1" has a serif. Secondly, the "1" is also kerned, which affects which kinds of number sequences can be shown. I checked this out last night (probably works with any episode) and the guy is absolutely correct. These changes are perfectly ridiculous, and a good example of art direction gone totally bonkers.
